Review: INVOLUNTARY TURNOVER by Cheri Baker


Kat is the HR director at a medical center specializing in employee relations. Basically she deals with all the drama in the work place. At the end of the day, keeping the boss happy is a good career move.

Kat knows the plight of the worker and having to deal with a boss always telling you what you did wrong.

“I understood that she was being impossible and it was my job to be quiet and suck it up.” (11) Yep, heard that!

According to her boss, when an employee makes a mistake, you should rub it in their face, humiliate them, and move on. Kat wasn’t interested in being the corporate b#@.

But it was a job after all. The last thing she expected was to find one of her file clerks dead from a gunshot. Someone murdered her. Like any HR director, Kat goes through the standard protocols of keeping the company afloat, preventing employees from running amok, and keeping the media out of all this. And why the need to get religious in this? Was there any actual crime-solving in this? I liked her wit, but there was too much corporate policy dragging down the whole mystery. Other than that, it’s an okay read.

My rating: 3 stars
